July 24th weekend

This weekend was a holiday for Utahns. July 24th is Pioneer day! On Friday we went to the ReAL Salt Lake game and met up with some friends. I was anticipating leaving early for fear Ruthie would only last ten minutes. Boy was I wrong she lasted the whole game and through the fireworks show after the game! She was so cute. She was jumping almost the whole time and everytime ReAL scored a game she went wild with the crowd by throwing her hands into the air and squealing with delight. I didn't get a picture of the whole group but I will try to get one from a friend.

On Saturday, Grandma and Grandpa Leavitt and Haley came to town. We had so much fun with them. We ate some yummy Olive Garden for dinner and went swimming back at their hotel. Ruthie would jump in the pool then turn right around and jump in the spa. She went back and forth the whole time we were there.

While Aunt Haley was sharing her lemonade, Ruthie made a grab for her food..


On Sunday we went to church then Justin made a delicious Japanese curry for everyone. After dinner we went to the canyons to play. Ruthie went down the slide and all by HERSELF. Later on we went back to the Leavitt's hotel to play scatergories and rage. I think I won both games ;)

Haley let Ruthie listen to her ipod. Isn't that so cute how she clipped it onto her shorts? She looks like a little teenager! Thanks for a wonderful weekend Leavitts. We love you guys and can't wait to see you again in a couple of days!
